I have the HTC RC-E100 headset and it works well with Windows Media Player, but my favourite media player is Conduits PocketPlayer (4.1), and the remote control options don't work with PocketPlayer.
Does anyone know if it's possible to set up PocketPlayer to be controlled by the in-line remote control buttons on the RC-E100 cable? (e.g. for volume, play/pause, FF/REW)
you should ask the authors of that software..

Have you tried to change the hotkeys from PocketPlayer?

After buying a W100 Wired Remote, I found that it only works with Windows Media Player (which in my personal and humil opinion sucks!). Unless you 'lock' all buttons, any press you make will open WMP (even if you're already running any other player),.... and if you lock them, well, you won't even be able to answer a call... and of course, if you're ok with no buttons... what did you want this adapter for????
I asked HTC for support, and how to configure it with other players, etc.. and this is the answer (after asking three times and two weeks after my last 'request')...
Thank you for contacting HTC Europe.
The "HTC Touch W100 Wired Remote" it's an accessory obviously made by HTC, having mind to serve our products.
Now, our mobile phones are supplied with windows mobile manufactured software and the only media program supplied with it it's the well known "Windows Media Player" in mobile format.
We don't supply other media software on our products and so we don't manufacture accessories for other 3rd party software manufactures.
Should you have any other query, please do not hesitate to call us. Your local number can be found at: http://www.europe.htc.com/support/csbyphone.html

I don't think that's a reasonable answer so beware if you're thinking of getting one of these!
Prof.
P.S. Oh, I forgot to say, if you install HTC AudioManager, it will control AudioManager (and open AM, and everything instead of WMP). It's just that AudioManager has the same drawbacks as WMP, with 'pseudo-intelligent' media lists, etc.... AND THEY DON'T EVEN CONSIDER THAT IN THEIR ANSWER!!!!
The W100 Wired Remote also works with the FM Radio !!
Any solution?
I use Conduits Pocket Player v3.2 and it has plugin Conduits WMP Plugin Adapter 2.0
This plugin enables Pocket Player to 'host' plugins that are originally designed for Windows Media Player 10 for Windows Mobile. Many plugins simply control playback, such as the Bluetooth A2DP/AVRCP plugin on WM5 devices. Other times, more features and controls are utilized, such as the plugin for Microsoft Voice Command.
Sound good but not working... maybe next version...
Too Late
I allready got one...
You R Right!
It Sucks!!!!!!!
grtz,
Pfeffa-rah
If anyone's sick of it and want to get rid of it, let me know. I think it might be possible to map in wider support and customisation of the functions if I can see how it works.

Hi, i have HTC P3300 PDAViet BB v4.0 and recently buy from expansys W100 Wired Remote.
Automatically works in this rom with Audiomanager without install any specific driver, works perfectly, play button launch audiomanager, all butons are ok, holding next/prev you scan song, single click go to next or prev, if launch radio, buttons only work on radio, if anyone calling me when listen music (mp3) volume fade off and listen ring tone, button mute works ok.
repeat, i dont need install driver in this rom, works directly.

HI I don't have the w100 but I'm interested to buy a 3.5mm adapter so.. do have you try the Htc audio manager (the installable .cab) with the registry patch on this link?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=318459
with the registry patched the Htc audio manager is my default mp3 player.
Yeah I was pretty pissed too. Was eager to try w100+ Conduits Pocket Player and it doesn't work - who uses windows media player anyway? The only hope is some kind of patch from conduits :\
Wish I'd found this topic before I bought one of these. Didn't realize you couldn't use the buttons with CorePlayer, Conduits PocketPlayer, or Resco Radio. If you don't clip that controller onto your collar or something, it eventually weighs on the headphones and pulls them out of your ears. Once clipped on, you really look like a dork
Seemed like a good idea, just not well implemented. As-is, it's a waste of money...
Guys heads up!!! Things have MOVED forwards!!
I just tried Pocket Player 4.0. I think it's the most recent version. All the buttons are working without any problem. So, in the end, there is a cool player supporting the hot 7-buttons handsfree ;-) And it's working on a HTC Diamond. So, I guess, we can mark this topic as *SOLVED* ;-)
So - have fun !!! AND BUY THE HANDSFREE!!! It is COOOOOL !!!

Hi Im trying the pocket player 4 but my w100 dont work (still open WMP) how do you make it work? do you install any plug in?
Hi, I'm also keen to find out a little about the ROM and software you're running... My TyTn II (with Pocket Player 4) insists on controlling HTC Audio Manager.
So - firstly, what is on the ROM in terms of music players? WMP obviously, but do you have HTC Audio Manager installed as well? And did you tweak any settings in PP4 or did it just work out of the box?
I'm liking the W100 but not with HTC/Microsoft media players... any advice appreciated!
Any news?
Are you still using your w100?
this is an old thread but still not soved.
Mine was working fine at least with HTC Audio manager with my Fuze, with sevaral different roms as long as I didn´t use second today or something like that, wich will deactivate HTC audio manager and works only with WMP.
Now i have a CDMA/GSM Rhodium from Verizon with the newest Energy ROM wich is great by the was. But I can not make it work with my w100, it is only controling WMP.
Any news???
Hello,
Ik was wondering if it was possible to config the buttons on my RC e100 remote controller? Then i hope its possible to use the controller also for other audio programs, because of the equalizer problem that a lot of people have.
I hope someone can help me

I would love to use the HTC RC E100 with S2P.
Ditto!
In another thread someone said that PocketPlayer recognizes all of the buttons of this remote control.
So I guess other third party players like CorePlayer first have to include support for this remote control.
There's nothing HTC can do.
Unbelievable how much time goes by and nothing happens, but that's so typical for CoreCodec.

I would love to use the HTC RC E100 with S2P too.
rc-e100 absolutely doesnt work with my hermes ;-(
Can anyone on this forum have solution for this problem??????
Has anyone a solution? I want to use it with MortPlayer...
It is not supposed to work with BlueSoleil but with Broadcom stack
RC E100 is on cable, not bluetooth
I would also love to use the remote with MortPlayer.
On my touch Diamond, I tried HTC Audio Manager, which is unfortunately not VGA compatible. The remote works with it. Maybe that's a clue

There is a VGA compatible HTC Audio Manager out there, you can get it here: http://rapidshare.com/files/53159533/HTC.Audio.Manager.cab.html
Think it's a bit strange that no one has built an app yet to interpredate the signals sent from the headset, it cannot be impossible... Big minus to HTC for not releasing an API for this.
RC w100 can't control Sense 2.5 player
There hjave been over a year and no one have figure out how to make the remote control other players. The only oines it controls are:
WMP
Pocket player with all the plugins (Older manila)
HTC Manila Player.
It stopped working on latest Manila releases,
Im using Sense 2.5 Enrgy ROM and can't control the player yet.
Any clues????
Hi All,
I am currently running WM6.5 on EnergyRom (8/8/09). I find that PlayPause seems to occasionally cause an issue with the manilla media player in that it pauses for no apparent reason or indeed skips tracks.
Is there any alternative I can try with the Stock Headset or am I looking at a bluetooth headset in order to utilise what I'm after properly?

Have a search for Nitrogen. It's excellent and has a great UI.

I agree, Nitrogen is indeed very good, however my problem is controlling the media player...whichever one I use. Playpause doesn't work with latest Nitrogen reliably does it.
So my question still stands.

Ah right sorry I read PlayPause as play/pause thinking it was the play/pause function of manilla player. I see now that your talking about a program called PlayPause that i've never heard of.
I just looked it up but it didn't say how it works. How does it work?

Basically it allows the default headset button on the MIC to play or pause the music from the Manila tab, and a double tap changes the track.
doesn't seem to work too well on wm6.5
Doesn't this work ?
For wired headphone users
You may control Nitrogen through wired headphone button using PlayPause mod (thanks to Zepiii).

playpause_3.1b won't even install on my device anymore since 6.5...4.0 will.
For headphones? Is this function even possible with the 3.5mm jack that's on our phone? I have one of these for my iPod touch, but I trying to ween myself off of the Apple teet.
The stock HTC version of froyo (with sense and whatnot) will work with an iphone headset natively. But only to play/pause and deal with calls. It wont skip tracks fwd/back or fast fwd or adjust the volume.
HOWEVER, you can get a free app in the market called droidshuffle. It adds track skipping and a few other minor features. But, the current version doesn't work with the HTC music player. So you can either install a 3rd party player called cubed or the default android player (if you can find the apk on a forum).
The droidshuffle dev is working on a new version that will also work the the HTC player. I've been trying the beta and it seems to work fine. While cubed and the default android player are fine I like using the HTC player because it gives you lockscreen controls too.
These work perfectly for me, shipping takes forever but the price makes up for it
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=260631383421&ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT#ht_2761wt_911
Yeah I have the same and they're okay. The sound quality is crap but they're made by HTC so at least all of the buttons work properly. I use mine to control doubleTwist.

Some shipping and soldering would take care of that problem. Anyone know if a Bluetooth remote exists that doesn't output audio?

I want to get these Bose headphones but the volume and skip-track buttons only work on the iPhone. Any way to get it to work with Android?

Because it's a hardware problem you can only get the skip/repeat/stop track rockers, volume won't work. I use poweramp and it works like a charm.
Are you saying Poweramp is an app that allows you to use the iPhone controls with android? Thanks.

Yes poweramp is a replacement media player, that will allow in-line controls.
